Summary - Apartment 1 Read House, 1, Childer Close, COVENTRY CV6 5NG
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Ready-to-live apartment with parking and long lease, ideal for first-time buyers.
990‑year lease provides long‑term security and clear title
Allocated off‑street parking and secure intercom access included
Furnishings and appliances included for turnkey move or let
Open‑plan living/kitchen maximises usable living space
Small overall size (~580 ft²) — compact two‑bedroom flat
Service charge ≈ £1,400pa and ground rent £150pa — ongoing costs
Very slow broadband in the area may affect home working
Located in a very deprived area; average local crime levels
This well-presented two-bedroom apartment sits within an exclusive nine‑flat block and offers a ready-to-move-in home or a straightforward buy‑to‑let. The layout includes an open‑plan living/kitchen, two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom, all finished neutrally. Furnishings and appliances are included in the asking price if required, allowing immediate occupation or a fast rental setup.
Practical positives include a very long 990‑year lease, allocated off‑street parking and an EPC B rating. The building has secure intercom access and communal grounds set back from the road, which give a sense of privacy uncommon for urban flats. For investors the advertised gross yield is attractive and the flat is offered with no forward chain.
Buyers should note material constraints: the overall apartment is compact at about 580 ft², which suits small households or rental tenants rather than families needing substantial space. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and the service charge of around £1,400pa plus a £150 ground rent are ongoing costs to budget for. The wider neighbourhood scores as very deprived and local crime levels are average — factors to consider for long‑term resale or tenant demand.
On balance this apartment works best for a first‑time buyer seeking an affordable, low‑hassle starter home or an investor wanting a ready‑made rental with included furnishings. Viewings are recommended for those prioritising convenience, long lease security and a turn‑key option over a larger footprint or high‑speed internet access.
